Dominica, West Indies

THE week of prayer was a pleasant and profitable time to the company here. We met at five o'clock every morning, and our songs of praise in the stillness of that early hour were impressive. Some of our neighbors joined with us in the services. We had our first baptism of two candidates on Sunday, December 31. A large crowd assembled to witness the ceremony. Tracts on baptism were sold at the close of the service.
Our annual offering was $13.12; the tithe was $116.51; and the Sabbath-school donations amounted to $17.76, $8.17 of which was given to missions; other donations came to $6.34; and on the building fund one hundred dollars was collected, and we are making an earnest effort to raise the rest this year.
Since writing the above, we have had a severe shock of earthquake, which shook terribly the largest buildings. No damage was done except the stone wall of a house separated from the wooden structure. P. GIDDINGS.
